PRESS RELEASE - November 2001
“Made in India”Kate Bedell is an Irish Watercolour Artist. She graduated from Art College receiving her diploma in Fine Art in 1984. She is a member of the Irish Water Colour Society and has exhibited in the Royal Hibernian Academy of Art. Her work is displayed in the University of Limerick (Ireland) as well as being part of many private collections world-wide. She appeared on “Watercolour
Challenge”, a British T.V. programme, twice last year, painting scenes from Ireland. Her work incorporates all types of water-based media, pastels, and gold and silver ink. She is presently living in India. “Ireland has a name for being a watercolour country, and my previous work has reflected this in my misty, ethereal landscapes
and flower paintings. Coming to India has been a real challenge for me. However, I have always had a passion for painting sunflowers, and it is this fieriness that has how found expression in my work. Since coming to India, I feel I have the freedom to break the “old rules” of my previous watercolour training. My palette is now exploding with colour and texture and I have a more stylized approach to my subject”. |
